All papers must be double-spaced in a 12 pt, Times New Roman. Three references must be cited, one has to be a non-internet source. Details: Include relevant facts. How and why was your subject inspired to become a musician or composer? What musical contribution did this person make? Are there interesting attributes to this person that are non-musical? Keep your paper informative and interesting.
When discussing your subject, present him/her as though you are telling me about a friend whom I haven’t met, including anecdotes that make your subject a “real” person. No one (including myself) wants to read just a bunch of stale facts, and dusty dates
